Al Wefaq condemns the regime for systematic discrimination

Bahrainis Shia have been systematically robbed of their rights by the state to the benefits of foreign nationals has complained Al Wefaq.

Al Wefaq called on the state to end such disgraceful apartheid policy, urging the authorities to recognize the need for fairness and equality. Al Khalifa have worked to naturalize Sunni foreigners in order to change the kingdom’s social and religious make up and retain their hold on power.

The great majority of Bahrainis are Shia Muslims, something Al Khalifa perceive as a threat as they are Sunnis.
